feather stone
lay in a flint rock garden
an undiscovered find
picked up and placed
just like so many others that day
in my pockets
piled high on the kitchen table
once again
examined for silver and gold
my only find that day
among flint stone lime
a blue feather stone
I blinked just once
to find my blue bird’s eye
sitting on its feather stone
